| I had to share this w/ everyone... i was at my local salvation army couldnt find any shorts in my size 20 or 18.... so sometimes i have found they miss place clothes in the smaller section so i went there.. found 2 pair of NEW size 16 shorts i thought NO WAY will they fit... but i wanted to try them on and see how much i had to go till they would. so i make my way to the fitting room put the one pair on.. vooom.. went right on.. they were to short in the leggs tho i didnt like that.. so i wasnt getting them then there was this other pair the first pair i tried on had a bit of elastic in the waste band so i figured those would fit easier.. the second pair didnt.. well i put them on.. they were snug.. but OMG I GOT THEM ZIPPED AND BUTTONED and there wasnt anywhere to lay down so i didnt need to go that far... yes i almost lookd as if i was pourd in to them but I HAVENT WORN A SIZE 16 since shortly after baby #1... That was over 7 yrs ago!!!!!!!!!!... I'm so excited!!!!! This means soon i will not have to buy clothes in the plus size clothes!!!!!!!!!!!! <<<<<<DOING HAPPY DANCE!>>>>>>>>> i bought those shorts and 3 tank tops that were size MED. not a size xL or even a 2 xl... Like i usualy would.. sigh... this WOL is so great!

| Fantastic! There's no better feeling than zipping up those downsized pants. I STILL get a thrill when I slip into (love that phrase--slip into) my favorite jeans. Good for you!! |

| even better news w/ this accomplishment... was talking to a friend of mine and was telling him that i might visit him in Sept.... (in dc) and told him my discovery today.. he told me if i make it down at least 1 more pants size he will take me SHOPPING .. well that is even more of an incentive to get rid of those 16s and hit the 14's .. WOOOHOO... lots of work to do to get to them..
